Accession: GO:0141048
Name: membrane tag activity
Ontology: molecular_function
Synonyms: lipid tag, covalent modifier
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A molecular function exhibited by a protein that is covalently attached (AKA tagged or conjugated) to a lipid, where it acts as a marker for a membrane, recognized by the cellular apparatus to target the tagged protein for some cellular process such as autophagy. Source: PMID:17632063
Comment: Use this term to annotate conjugated tags, not for conjugating enzymes. At the time of writing, all known gene products with this activity are ubiquitin-like, either based on overall sequence similarity or the presence of common motifs and structures.
